Solve for y: (1/2)y + 1/2 =
3 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2y + 1/2 = 3 1/2

        - 1/2      -1/2      subtract 1/2 on both sides to isolate 1/2y

1/2y = 3                      divide both sides by 1/2 to get y value

y = 6

26 is 33.33% of 78

step-by-step explanation:

26 is what percent of 78?

26 is p% of 78

equation: y = p% * x

solving our equation for p

p% = y/x

p% = 26/78

p = 0.3333

convert decimal to percent:

p% = 0.3333 * 100 = 33.33%
